Hermann or Herman?

The Dutch Wikipedia lists his first name as Herman, which is the normal Dutch way of writing that name (with one n). Hermann (with double n) is the German equivalent. However, a quick search did not yield any good source on which is the correct spelling. Any insights on this? -- Sander (talk) 14:50, 6 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
